Dr. Marie Hernandez, Founder and Principal Consultant

I’m passionate about helping school systems move from good intentions to real results.

With over a decade of experience in public education leadership—including roles at the campus and district level—I’ve led and supported initiatives that directly impact teaching, learning, and student outcomes. My work has focused on building systems that bring clarity, alignment, and accountability to the daily work of educators.

I’ve had the opportunity to support:

Districtwide implementation of high-quality instructional materials (K–Algebra II)
Development of leadership pipelines, including Lead Teachers and Demonstration Lab models
Instructional coaching systems that drive teacher growth
Professional Learning Communities (PLCs) focused on student outcomes—not just meetings
Data systems that connect classroom practice to district goals

We don’t bring theory— We bring systems that work in real schools, with real constraints.

Deep understanding of Texas accountability systems
Experience at campus and district levels
Focus on practical, sustainable implementation

Proven Results

My work is grounded in measurable impact, not just ideas.

Achieved 100% teacher eligibility within systems supported for Teacher Incentive Allotment (TIA)
Supported systems where 30%+ of teachers earned designations
Helped generate over $3 million in additional teacher compensation
Led implementation of aligned instructional systems across multiple campuses and grade levels
Built leadership structures that sustain improvement—not just short-term gains

My Approach

I believe strong school systems are built through:

Clarity – Everyone understands the “what” and “why”
Alignment – From district goals to classroom instruction
Accountability – Systems that monitor progress and drive action
Support – Leaders and teachers equipped to do the work well

I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all solutions. Every district is different, and the work must be practical, actionable, and grounded in real school experience.

Our Philosophy

Strong systems create strong outcomes.

When leaders are clear, supported, and aligned—students benefit.

I’ve been in the work.

I understand the challenges of balancing expectations, supporting teachers, improving outcomes, and navigating accountability systems—because I’ve lived it.

That’s why my focus is always on helping leaders build systems that:

Actually work in real schools
Support teachers, not overwhelm them
Lead to sustainable improvement over time

How I Can Support You

Whether your focus is:

Instructional systems and PLCs
Accountability and A–F
TIA implementation
Leadership development
Curriculum implementation (Bluebonnet, etc.)

I work alongside your team to build systems that drive results and last beyond the work itself.
